Question

Convert sodium acetate into methane

Answer 1

Hey pal...!!
Here's your answer...

Sodium acetate is CH3COONa

Then add Soda Lime ( a mixture of NaOH and CaO) to it.

So the reaction is :

CH3COONa + NaOH → CH4 + Na2CO3

Note: It must be heated to attain a temperature of 300°C and CaO acts as the catalyst.
